How WEP Hack works?

The flaw in TKIP has to do with checksums, which are used to ensure the integrity and accuracy of data. Checksums work by taking a sequence of numbers that are to be transmitted, applying a transformation to produce a short result, and appending that result to the transmission. For instance, an ISBN that starts with 978 is 13 digits long, 12 of which represent a unique book number. The 13th is a base 10 number derived from alternately multiplying successive digits by 1 or 3, adding the results, and taking the modulo of 10. If you type in an ISBN incorrectly, a system that recalculates the checksum can determine in many cases if digits are swapped or wrong digits are entered. With wireless transmission, the odds of missing a bit or getting it wrong are relatively high, and checksums are used both to determine whether there was an error in reception and to ensure the integrity of a packet. If the payload changes and the checksum does not, then a receiver can tell that the packet was tamp
